The present invention relates to improve especially the utilization factor of light, promote substrate film for optical sheet, optical sheet and backlight unit that brightness improves.
Background technology
Characteristics such as it is slim by effectively utilizing for liquid crystal indicator (LCD), light weight, power consumption are low are used for flat-panel monitor more, and purposes enlarges year by year.What this liquid crystal indicator was popularized is from the luminous back lighting mode of back side illuminaton liquid crystal layer, is provided with the edge light type below liquid crystal layer, under backlight unit such as type.The backlight unit 50 of above-mentioned edge light type is basically shown in Fig. 9 (a), has strip light 51 as light source, make the end along the rectangular plate shape light guide plate 52 that lamp 51 is provided with, be located at light guide plate 52 lip-deep light diffusing sheets 53, be located at the prismatic lens 54 of light diffusing sheet 53 face side.
The function of this backlight unit 50 is described now.At first, the light that is incided light guide plate 52 by lamp 51 is the reflection spot or reflector plate (not shown) reflection at light guide plate 52 back sides, from the surperficial outgoing of light guide plate 52.Then, incide prismatic lens 54, go up the 54a of prism portion that form by prismatic lens 54 surfaces and get the beam projecting that the peak value form distributes along normal directions roughly from the light of light diffusing sheet 53 outgoing.
Like this, from the light of lamp 51 outgoing by light diffusing sheet 53 diffusions, via prism 54 along normal direction roughly with the refraction of peak value form, and then the whole liquid crystal layer (not shown) on the illumination surface.Have again,, change, protect the 54a of prism portion gently or prevent purposes such as liquid crystal boards such as polaroid and prism 54 adhesions for the optically focused characteristic that makes above-mentioned prism 54 though do not show brightly among the figure.Also be provided with light diffusing sheet in the surface of prismatic lens 54.
Light diffusing sheet 53 set in the above-mentioned backlight unit 50 is general shown in Fig. 9 (b), light diffusion layer 57 (for example can open flat 7-5305 communique with reference to the spy, the spy opens 2000-89007 communique etc.) with plastic residuite floor 56 and lamination on these hypothallus 56 surfaces.This kind light diffusion layer 57 generally is to include resinous microballon 59 in the bonding agent 58 of transparent resin system, realizes light diffusion function by microballon 59.
The desired characteristic of LCD is easily observed (wide field's angling) according to purposes and variation for example has bright (high brightnessization) in recent years, and energy-conservation, thin lightization etc. particularly will inevitably require high brightnessization.But,, only be to have become the situation of being unable to catch up with that chases after by lamps 51 such as light guide plate 52 in the improvement backlight unit 50 and cold-cathode tubes in order to guarantee brightness simultaneously in the theory of the LCD that keeps lighting.
Have, polaroid has become integral vitals among the LCD again.What the polaroid of general usefulness adopted is to demonstrate by the what is called that a light absorbing durection component allows remaining polarized component see through to absorb dichromatic element.This polaroid will absorb 50% light in order to obtain polarized light on the principle, this just becomes the main reason of the utilization factor that reduces LCD light.
Recently, in order to improve the utilization factor of this light, be provided with reflecting polarizer in the top of backlight unit 50.This reflecting polarizer makes seeing through of polaroid with seeing through axle component former state, and polarized component is in addition turned back to the below, comes thus light is utilized again.But even this backlight unit 50 with the reflecting polarizer lamination, in fact because the equal loss is reflected in the thermal absorption of periodic light, the utilization factor of light also can only realize about 75%.
Summary of the invention
In view of above-mentioned these unfavorable situations, the object of the present invention is to provide the utilization factor that can significantly improve light, promote substrate film for optical sheet, optical sheet and backlight unit that brightness improves by leaps and bounds.
The inventor furthers investigate found that of polarization characteristic of each textural element of backlight unit, polarized component from the light guide plate chamfered edge eyeglass of lamination (or on the light guide plate surface) emergent ray is many in the vertical direction with respect to lamp, since with polaroid plate or reflecting polarizer to see through axle inconsistent, cause the utilization factor of light low.
In order to address the above problem, the present invention proposes the substrate film for optical sheet of the transparent resin system that forms rectangle, this matrix membrane is characterised in that it has the optical anisotropy, with respect to the absolute value of the crystalline axis direction angle of short side direction at π/more than 16 and 3 π/below 16.Here so-called " with respect to the crystalline axis direction angle of short side direction " is lip-deep angle, and meaning turns right turns left to be the angle of "-" for "+".
Because this substrate film for optical sheet has the optical anisotropy, and with respect to the angle absolute value of short side direction crystalline axis direction at π/more than 16 and 3 π/below 16, just can be from the polarization direction (in-plane that means polarisation of light component maximum of the light guide plate chamfered edge eyeglass of lamination (or on the light guide plate surface) emergent light, below herewith) transform to the direction of principal axis that sees through of polaroid or reflecting polarizer, can see through and the utilization factor of raising light effectively as the catoptrical component that reclaims thereby can make over.

This substrate film for optical sheet 1 has the angle and the length of delay of optimized crystalline axis direction, they will in below by example with the simulation explanation.
The anisotropic affirmation of polarized light intensity from the light of outgoing such as light guide plate
As shown in Figure 2, the structure of edge light type backlight unit is at A: the prismatic light guide plate is all-in-one-piece situation and B: the situation of prismatic light guide plate and the combination of chamfered edge eyeglass, carried out field angle brightness measuring with the perpendicular direction of direction of lamp.At this moment, regulate the angle of the polarizing filter of analyzer, measured
(1) with the polarized component of lamp vertical direction (it is vertical that the analyzer polarizing filter sees through axle), with
(2) with the polarized component of lamp parallel direction (it is parallel that the analyzer polarizing filter sees through axle).The result is shown in Fig. 3.
As shown in Figure 3, the prismatic light guide plate at above-mentioned A is whole situation.Export near big 60 °~75 ° at light, polarized light anisotropy height has polarized component along the big light output characteristics of the vertical direction of lamp.In the situation of prismatic light guide plate/chamfered edge eyeglass of above-mentioned B, in have near 0 ° of the frontal polarized light anisotropy strong, along the big light output characteristics of the vertical direction polarized component of lamp.
Affirmation from the polarization characteristic of emergent raies such as light guide plate
Confirm for polarization characteristic, simultaneously and have only the backlight unit contrast of normal direction light guide plate from the back lighting equipment emergent ray of light guide plate shown in Figure 2/chamfered edge lens structure.To be made as 0 ° with the perpendicular direction of the direction of lamp, stacked polaroid on described backlight unit at first makes the axle that sees through of this polaroid rotate to 10 ° from 0 ° of position at every turn, has measured the front face brightness data.Carried out identical mensuration for the backlight unit that has only the normal direction light guide plate.The result is shown in Fig. 4.
As shown in Figure 4, with the texture ratio that has only the normal direction light guide plate, in the structure of prismatic light guide plate/chamfered edge eyeglass, in vertical component and parallel component, can confirm that polarized component has big deviation with respect to lamp.Specifically, in the back lighting of prismatic light guide plate/chamfered edge lens structure, the polarization of polarized component compares approximately big 20% at the component of vertical direction with the component aspect parallel with respect to lamp.
The optimization simulation of crystallographic axial angle and phase differential
According to the said determination result, carried out to the polarization characteristic with the light of outgoing such as light guide plate can transform to seeing through on the axle of polaroid efficiently, obtain the calculating of the optimal value of the crystallographic axial angle of this substrate film for optical sheet 1 and phase differential.
Polarizer P and analyzer Q are set on the two sides of this matrix membrane, consider that the linearly polarized light (amplitude=1 sees through light intensity=1) by polarizer P sees through this matrix membrane, by the situation of analyzer Q.
If the superfacies direction of principal axis of the crystallographic axis on this matrix membrane surface and slow axis direction are x direction and y direction, the thickness of matrix membrane is d, the refractive index of x direction and y direction is that (the angle between direction of principal axis of seeing through of nx ≠ ny), crystalline axis direction and analyzer P is that the angle through between direction of principal axis that sees through direction of principal axis and analyzer Q of ψ, polarizer P is β for nx and ny, then the displacement of the light by analyzer Q can be represented by above-mentioned formula (1), seeing through light intensity can be represented by above-mentioned formula (2), and the average light intensity I that sees through of three kinds of wavelength of RGB ACan represent by above-mentioned formula (3).
Optimum polarization axle angle
According to the said determination result, be the direction vertical from the polarization of light direction of light guide plate outgoing with the lamp direction, usually the direction of principal axis that sees through of polaroid with respect to the direction vertical with the lamp direction is ± π/4.For this reason, in above-mentioned formula (1), (2) and (3), establish β=π/4, ψ and the average light intensity I of seeing through have been calculated in Re=λ/2 ARelation, its result is shown among Fig. 5 (a).
Test findings according to Fig. 5 (a) and " with respect to the angle [alpha] of the crystalline axis direction of short side direction and the relation of front face brightness " described later is judged, use in the substrate membrane 1 at this optical sheet, as the crystalline axis direction (x relative with short side direction, y) absolute value of angle α, be preferably above and 3 π in π/16/below 16, especially preferably at 3 π/more than 32 and 5 π/below 32, especially with π/8 the bests.In addition, why the angle [alpha] of crystalline axis direction being got the above specific absolute value, is because the direction of principal axis that sees through of general polaroid is ± π/4 sometimes with respect to the direction vertical with the lamp direction.
Have, using above-mentioned length of delay is the substrate film for optical sheet 1 of 320nm, the latter is laminated on the backlight unit of light guide plate/chamfered edge lens structure again, makes the crystallographic axis revolution, has measured surface brightness.This result's the crystallographic axis angle and the relation of front face brightness are shown among Fig. 5 (b), the ψ of same Fig. 5 of relation (a) of crystallographic axial angle and front face brightness shown in Fig. 5 (b) and the average light intensity I that sees through ARelation have matching, this illustrates that the simulation of above-mentioned crystallographic axial angle is suitable.
The optimal delay value
According to said determination result and analog result, calculated and be set at best β=π/4, ψ=-on average see through light intensity I during (β/2) angle ARelation with length of delay the results are shown among Fig. 6.
Judge according to Fig. 6, in this substrate film for optical sheet 1, make the average light intensity I of seeing through AThe length of delay that reaches more than 0.75 is desirable, and makes the average light intensity I of seeing through ABe that length of delay more than 0.9 is better, as for making the average light intensity I of seeing through ABe that length of delay more than 0.95 is then especially good.
As the concrete length of delay in this substrate film for optical sheet.Test findings according to Fig. 6 and " length of delay and front face brightness relation " described later is judged: make the average light intensity I of seeing through AThe 140nm that reaches more than 0.75 is above with below the 390nm, 680nm is above with below the 1040nm, 1350nm above with 1610nm with inferior be desirable, especially preferably 190nm is above with below the 330nm, and best especially especially be that 240nm is above with below the 280nm.Set the length of delay in the above-mentioned scope, can be effectively the changeable direction of polarization of emergent raies such as light guide plate be seen through direction of principal axis and the also easily manufacturing of this substrate film for optical sheet to polaroid etc.
Above-mentioned crystalline axis direction is advisable to get the superfacies direction of principal axis.The utilization factor of light is improved by being the method that decides of benchmark with the superfacies direction of principal axis when being benchmark above-mentioned angle [alpha] with respect to short side direction, can improve the brightness of backlight unit with the slow axis direction.This fact can be obtained proof by the test findings of " superfacies direction of principal axis and slow axis direction are with the relation of front face brightness " described later.
As the manufacture method of this substrate film for optical sheet 1, there is no particular restriction in the time having above-mentioned crystallographic axial angle and length of delay.For example, crystallographic axial angle can be by the tensile force in the uniaxial tension processing such as adjusting PET, temperature etc., or by die-cut position and the die-cut angle of adjusting biaxially-stretched film in Punching Technology, and can control in the scope of the present invention.In addition, length of delay, the tensile force during stretch process, temperature, thickness etc. are may command also.
Above-mentioned substrate film for optical sheet 1 can be with the changeable direction of polarization of light guide plate (or being laminated to the lip-deep chamfered edge eyeglass of light guide plate) the emergent ray direction of principal axis that sees through to polaroid or reflecting polarizer, makes over can efficiently see through and can improve the utilization factor of light as the catoptrical component that reclaims.
The optical sheet 10 of Fig. 7 is to have the light diffusing sheet that makes transmitted light diffusion function (being the directivity diffusion function towards normal direction optically focused in detail in the diffusion while).This optical sheet 10 have the invention described above substrate film for optical sheet 1, be laminated to this matrix membrane 1 lip-deep optical layers (light diffusion layer) 11 and be laminated to anti-bonding coat 12 on this matrix membrane 1 inside surface.
